Abstract

The controversy over the selection of 'growth regressions' was precipitated by some remarkably numerous 'estimation' strategies, including two million regressions by Sala-i-Martin ["American Economic Review" (1997b) Vol. 87, pp. 178-183]. Only one regression is really needed, namely the general unrestricted model, appropriately reduced to a parsimonious encompassing, congruent representation. We corroborate the findings of Hoover and Perez ["Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics" (2004) Vol. 66], who also adopt an automatic general-to-simple approach, despite the complications of data imputation. Such an outcome was also achieved in just one run of "PcGets", within a few minutes of receiving the data set in Fernández, Ley and Steel ["Journal of Applied Econometrics" (2001) Vol. 16, pp. 563-576] from Professor Ley.
